  • Develop CDD drivers for AUTOSAR applications
  • Understand the various features provided by AUTOSAR BSW modules and configure
  • BSW modules in DaVinci Configurator or similar tools
  • Understand the AUTOSAR application (SW-C) configuration and the interaction of AUTOSAR applications (SW-C) with the underlying BSW modules
  • Understand the functionality of RTE, mapping of application entities with BSW module parameters, OS scheduling concepts, ECU and BSW module state changes
  • Understand the AUTOSAR methodology (ECU extract contents, import of ECU extract into configuration tool)
  • Understand the flow of the AUTOSAR software from application until the underlying driver
  • Get exposed to variant management concepts
  • Prepare guidelines and standards for AUTOSAR software development
  • Work with software development tools (debugger’s, emulators, compilers, etc.)
